SAN ANTONIO - Walmart Stores Inc. announced plans for a new Neighborhood Market at Guilbeau Rd. and Tezel Rd. on the city’s Northwest Side. When complete, the new market will be adjacent to the Village in the Woods Shopping Center. This will be the third Neighborhood Market for the Alamo City.

On average, the Neighborhood Market stores span about 41,000 sf. The store will also feature a pharmacy. Construction on the store is slated to begin January 2014 and set to open next fall.

The new Neighborhood Market will create up to 95 new jobs. Walmart will offer a job to any honorably discharged veteran within his or her first 12 months off active duty.

Village in the Woods is currently 67 percent occupied with rates starting at $11 up to $18 per sf.

A Neighborhood Market at Marbach Rd. and Ellison Dr. is set to open next spring, followed by a store at Hunt Ln. and Military Dr. West in summer 2014. Both stores will be on the city’s far West Side.
